| − | ===Bold, italic, and fixed-width text===
| + | |
| − | To mark text as <b>bold</b>, <i>italic</i> or <code>fixed-width</code>, you can use the HTML <nowiki><b></nowiki>, <nowiki><i></nowiki> and code tags. For example:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | <nowiki><b> bold </b></nowiki>,
| + | |
| − | <nowiki><i> italic </i></nowiki>,
| + | |
| − | <nowiki><b> <i> bold+italic </i> </b></nowiki>.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Note that MediaWiki (like most Wikis) processes pages line-by-line, so if you want three bold lines of text, you will need to use three separate <nowiki><b>...</b></nowiki> tags. Also note that unclosed or unmatched tags are not removed from the page.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | MediaWiki also implements the old "quote style" of text formatting, which is used on several wikis. Briefly:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | <pre>
| + | |
| − | ''Two single quotes are italics'',
| + | |
| − | '''three single quotes are bold''',
| + | |
| − | '''''five single quotes are bold and italic.'''''
| + | |
| − | </pre>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | looks like:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ''Two single quotes are italics'',
| + | |
| − | '''three single quotes are bold''',
| + | |
| − | '''''five single quotes are bold and italic.'''''
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Headings===
| + | |
| − | Headings are delimited by 1-6 equal signs (=). They basically correspond to HTML's <h1> through <h6> tags.
| + | |
| − | <pre>= Headline size 1 =
| + | |
| − | == Headline size 2 ==
| + | |
| − | === Headline size 3 ===
| + | |
| − | ==== Headline size 4 ====
| + | |
| − | ===== Headline size 5 =====
| + | |
| − | ====== Headline size 6 ======</pre>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Lists===
| + | |
| − | Simple lists:
| + | |
| − | <pre>
| + | |
| − | * Text for a bulleted list item.
| + | |
| − | ** Text for second-level list.
| + | |
| − | *** Text for third level, etc.
| + | |
| − | </pre>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ...which looks like:
| + | |
| − | * Text for a bulleted list item.
| + | |
| − | ** Text for second-level list.
| + | |
| − | *** Text for third level, etc.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Numbered lists:
| + | |
| − | <pre>
| + | |
| − | # Text for a numbered list item.
| + | |
| − | ## Text for second-level list.
| + | |
| − | ### Text for third level, etc.
| + | |
| − | ## Another Text for the second level.
| + | |
| − | </pre>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ...which looks like:
| + | |
| − | # Text for a numbered list item.
| + | |
| − | ## Text for second-level list.
| + | |
| − | ### Text for third level, etc.
| + | |
| − | ## Another Text for the second level.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Indented text===
| + | |
| − | Simple indented text:
| + | |
| − | <pre>
| + | |
| − | : Text to be indented (quote-block)
| + | |
| − | :: Text indented more
| + | |
| − | ::: Text indented to third level
| + | |
| − | </pre>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ...which looks like:
| + | |
| − | : Text to be indented (quote-block)
| + | |
| − | :: Text indented more
| + | |
| − | ::: Text indented to third level
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ===Preformatted text===
| + | |
| − | Individual lines can be displayed as preformatted (fixed-width or "typewriter"-font) text by placing one or more spaces at the start of the line. Other wiki formatting (like links) will be applied to this kind of preformatted text.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | <nowiki>Additionally, multi-line sections can be marked as pre-formatted text using lines starting with <pre> (to start pre-formatted text), and </pre> (to end preformatted text). The <pre> and </pre> tags are not displayed. Wiki links and other formatting is not done within a preformatted section. (If you want wiki formatting, use spaces at the start of the line instead of the <pre> and </pre> tags.)</nowiki>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | For instance:
| + | |
| − | <pre>
| + | |
| − | Pre-formatted section here. No other link
| + | |
| − | or format processing
| + | |
| − | is done on pre-formatted sections.
| + | |
| − | For instance, [[Gazelle]] is not a link here.
| + | |
| − | </pre>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | and:
| + | |
| − | This is the starting-spaces version of
| + | |
| − | preformatted text. Note that links like
| + | |
| − | [[Gazelle]] still work.

Simple editing is one of the major benefits of using a wiki. Users can edit pages without knowing HTML, and still use many of the formatting features of HTML. Please feel free to experiment in the Sandbox.
Most text does not require any special changes for wiki form. A few basic rules are:
